Grub4DosConfig is the Grub4Dos boot loader with GUI installer.
The name 'Grub4Dos' can be confusing but it is actually 'Grub NOT ONLY for Dos'.
Grub4dos supports many file system: NTFS, VFAT, EXT2, EXT3, EXT4. Does not support ReiserFS.
Grub4dos is upper compatible with (legacy) grub, can do all the legacy grub can do.

Jemimah, yes grub4dos works without ntfs/fat -can be installed to ext2/3 (probably ext4 as well). grub4dos includes lots of extra features (and fixes) as compared to standard grub-legacy, including booting iso's, creationg and use of RAM-disks -lots of tricks built in there. I'm interested in the mini version called 'wee', but it does not support editable menu.lst files -instead your menu is concatenated onto the binary, and it supports less filesystems. grub4dos is the most complete hack of grub-legacy, but the developer of super grub disk (SGD) has done a lot of mods in somewhat different directions and also has a grub2-based version. He (adrian15) is an upstream contrib to grub2.

For dual booting with pre-Vista windows, you can simply install grldr wherever you like and add an entry to the boot.ini file which points at grldr (grldr is the equivalent of the grub-legacy stage2 file)

For dual booting with Vista/W7, you can simply rename the bootmgr to something else and then install grldr named as bootmgr. See here:

Actually you can do the same for NT/XP just rename ntldr and install grldr as ntldr.

This method is actually much less invasive than tinkering with the boot.ini file. Just create an entry for NT/XP/Vista/W7 in the menu.lst.

B is missing ! that was the reason why i didn't found any topic about Grub4dos, so usefull.
